Jacaranda Trees

There is nothing more beautiful than looking out, from the upper stories of the Crystal Cathedral buildings and seeing a blue-purple sea of color, as the Jacaranda trees come into bloom. It seems that in California, we have the perfect climate for the expression of their beauty. Since they are known worldwide, from California and Florida, to Mexico, to Zimbabwe, to Australia, we as Hour of Power viewers have earth’s beauty in common wherever we may live.

Oh, clap your hands, all you peoples!

Shout to God with the voice of triumph! For the LORD Most High is awesome;

He is a great King over all the earth.

Psalm 47:1

Pastors Corner May 14, 2008

One of the most beautiful scenes in springtime, at the Crystal Cathedral, is a row of Azalea trees that line the path along the Arboretum. Somehow, they always speak to me of freshness and new beginnings.

It always makes me grateful, that our God is a God of new beginnings on a daily basis. Every day is a new day for us to approach with new freshness and new zeal. “Old things are passed away, and all things have become new…” the Bible.

Our old seasons of failures have passed away. The old seasons of regrets have passed away. Old seasons of dryness are gone. It’s a new day, it’s a brand new day and I’m waking up to Jesus.

May your future be brighter than you highest expectations.
